Fort Detrick Business Development Office Closure

The Fort Detrick Business Development Office will cease operations effective September 15th, as a result of sequestration and funding constraints.

The FDBDO was established in 2005 and was managed through a government contract funded by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command.

The USAMRMC is tasked with ensuring that our armed forces remain in optimal health and are equipped to protect themselves from disease and injury, particularly on the battlefield. The Command is headquartered at Fort Detrick, Md.
